This family-favorite recipe for pork sausage with fennel seed was passed down from my grandmother to my father in the 1950s. We’ve made it countless times. Portion the raw links into quart-sized freezer bags and store them in the freezer.
Ingredients
- 9 pounds pork shoulder, cut into cubes
- ¼ cup fennel seed
- 3 tablespoons garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons dried parsley
- 4 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 15 feet 1 1/2 inch diameter hog casings, rinsed
Directions
Step 1
Combine pork, fennel seed, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, parsley, salt, and pepper in a meat grinder; grind through a coarse plate. Mix in white wine and grind again.
Step 2
Stuff mixture into rinsed hog casings, twisting into 4-inch lengths. Cover and refrigerate until flavors meld, 8 hours to overnight. Cook as desired, or portion sausages into 1-quart freezer bags and store in the freezer.
Editor’s Note:
Follow your desired recipe to boil, grill, or pan-fry the fresh or frozen sausage links. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
